came back from the body shop says it all, chances are they removed a component like a seat or door panel, and triggered the light because they neglected to remove the negative terminal from the battery. the light will not reset itself, you need to hook it up to a durametric (or similar) program and have the light turned off.

always remember when removing anything which you could hallucinate is related to the airbag system to disconnect the battery. as a precaution, I also like to hit the brakes a couple of times to "purge" any additional current from the system.
